UNSW develops new 3D printed bone implant - bringing personalized, biodegradable implants one step closer to reality.

University of Texas at Dallas mechanical engineers have designed a 3D-printed femur that could help doctors prepare for surgeries to repair bones and develop treatments for bone tumors. The engineers, ...

Researchers recently developed a bone marrow model to study how the body generates cells. Interestingly, this model is the first of its kind to be developed entirely from human cells. Not only can ...

During a complicated bone surgery, every second matters. The longer a wound is open, the more likely it is to become infected and injured. Now picture this: Surgeons can now print a new piece of bone ...

A glue-gun-like device that can be used to print biodegradable bone grafts directly into fractures could revolutionize orthopedic surgery, offering personalized implants that speed healing and cut ...

Typically, bone marrow research relies heavily on animal models and oversimplified cell cultures in the laboratory. Now, researchers from the Department of Biomedicine at the University of Basel and ...

You might think that glass has no business acting as a replacement for bone, but it turns out the two materials have many similarities. Researchers reporting in ACS Nano developed a 3D printable ...

No one thinks of glass as a replacement for bone. But researchers in China have developed a 3D printable bio-active glass that edges closer to the bone’s resilience. In animal tests, it supported bone ...
